This is a 1000 year old church that has been bombed, burnt and rebuilt. There's still a cannon ball in one of the beams. The most recent remodeling was completed in 1954. The clock tower is facing West, Southwest. The history of the church tells of the original clock tower, collapsing in 1714 killing a man and a pig. Source: (visit link)
